Give your health the boost it needs
     And build your muscles too.
Get that racket in your hand
     And now, here’s what to do.

​

First, grip your racket properly.
     Let a good coach show you how
For there are many things to learn
      Which I will mention now.

​

A good ball toss improves your serve
    And will of course impress.
Direct your ball to the right height.
    Your aim will bring success!

​

Your arms must work in tandem too 
      And this also needs your skill.
Adroitness comes from good technique
    And constant daily drill. 

​

Your groundstrokes need attention too -
     An expert’s help you’ll need -
For without perfection at grass roots
     You’ll not build skill or speed.

​

Attention’s needed all the time,
    So watch your ball with care.
Don’t move your head too needlessly,
     Or your balance you’ll impair.

​

These years of training and hard work
     Will perfect your tennis style
And with that trophy in your hands,
     You’ll know it was worthwhile.
